Burn No More Candles

BURN no more candles in a mid-night heart:

Sleep like a child in utter self-lost peace;

All ripples from lifes surface shall depart

Into a lulled abode of motionless seas.

I Under the veil of blue in
nity

Where deathless eyes like aming jewels shine,

Tread moments crowned with new births ecstasy

Over memorys threshold in the spirits shrine.

Space has lost all its heavy hue of sighs

In a colourless still mystery of sound

The artist aureoled Sun-goddess dyes,

A symphony descending earthward bound.

Deep silence now has come upon the night,

Moon-song and star-song and gold-fretted Light.
